Houseplant Junkie - 6 Years Old

Six years old without a belt around my waist
Memorizing strings of numbers
Nine without mistake
857-753-9038 or nine look at me
Oh and now I'm watching the time dissolve

Oh am I alive
If I'm so goddamn worried
About the time until I die
Well no I'm not alright
But no-one is
So we love and we kiss
And we laugh all night

08840 it stayed the same
A different house
A different shade of blue
And man I've changed
It's tenth-grade
And I've started getting baked
So I don't really dream as much
And I stay up kinda late
Thinking oh and now I'm watching the time disolve

Singing oh am I alive
If I'm so goddamn worried
About the time until I die
Well no I'm not alright
But no-one is
So we love and we kiss
And we laugh all night

Oh and now I'm figuring out
How to live and just let go
I'm twenty years young
Learning Mandarin tongue and it's
2:05 on a lovely Saturday
I'm trying to explain
I'm not afraid of letting go
Do you think the leaves cling
To the trees and hope
They won't
Oh no
They just let go
They just let go
They just let go

And look at that I'm done
A beautiful body rotting in the sun
All I want's now to grow a trunk
And to be a tree
For now I'll just stand tall
All I wanna do is sing and write these songs
And I know it's never wrong
To say what I need
And that's curious quiet
Birds and songs and trees
Lovers and language
Then forever sleep
I said curious quiet
Birds and songs and trees
Lovers and language
Then forever sleep
